8、he middle of the Arctic Ocean, the German icebreaker Polarstern is frozen into the ice and covered in darkness.Several times a week, a handful of crew members step into a new zone.Theyre on a particular task to pilot a robotic boat beneath the ice to collect data about the environment scientists hav

9、e known little about so far.They are planning to collect the data they really want to know.Over the course of a year, the Arctic goes from completely lit in summer to completely dark in winter, which makes the sea ice undergo seasonal changes.The amount of light also shapes the Arctic Ocean ecosyste

10、m.Besides, the robotic boat is also collecting data on other ocean conditions, like nutrients and salinity (盐度).Indeed, all of the data will serve as a baseline to help scientists understand how sea ice and the unique habitat it creates are changing as temperatures rise across the Arctic.The campsit

11、e consists of a tent set up around the hole and a nearby control room.In October, a storm passed through, breaking up the ice and setting the camp afloat. Then, everything had to be rebuilt.In December, yet another crack (裂缝) appeared in the ice, running right through the camp.Once again, the resear

12、chers were forced to take everything apart before their equipment was swallowed by the sea.Fortunately, with winter entering full swing, the camp hasnt had to move since.Meanwhile, some of the Arctics permanent residents cause other dangers.The seals are known for chewing on wires, and underwater ca

13、bles are not very resistant to seals chewing.To prevent this, the robotic boat and its rope are stored in a metal mesh cage when not in use.Despite the many challenges of doing science in the high Arctic, The crew members think they are doing a great job if they can collect a full years worth of dat

DIts challengi

17、ng but valuable.CScientists have long been studying humanrobot interactions to learn how these machines can influence individuals behavior, such as changing how well someone completes a task.But new research shows the presence and actions of robots also affect the way humans relate to other humans.I

18、n the new study, researchers divided participants to teams of four, each of which consists of three people and one small robot, and had them play a game on tablets with the robot.In some groups, the robots were programmed to be “vulnerable”These machines performed actions, such as apologizing for ma

19、king mistakes, admitting to selfdoubt, sharing personal stories about their “life”， and talking about how they were “feeling”In control groups, the human participants teamed up with robots that made only neutral statements or remained entirely silent.The researchers found participants working with r

20、obots that showed vulnerability spent more time talking with their fellow humans than those did in the control groups.Participants with vulnerable robots also divided their conversation more equally between each human member of the team.These participants later reported that they regarded their expe

21、rience as more positive, compared with those in the control groups.Farshid Amirabdollahian, a professor of humanrobot interaction, says the research provides more evidence that “social behavior engineering for robots can affect their utility and influences on people.” In other words, by changing the

22、 actions of intelligent machines, developers can change the behavior of the people who interact with those machines.But this studys findings alone might prove useful in realworld situations.Humans interaction with digital discussion partners is prevalent today.The voice services people use on a dail

23、y basis are available on tens of millions of devices, such as Apples Siri, Amazons Alexa or Google Home.People are used to using them and find them very helpful.Malte Jung, an assistant professor in information science at Cornell, says communicative robots could greatly change human behavior for the

24、 better.“Our work shows that technology has the potential to support teams by acting on their social dynamics，” he says.Instead of merely reducing the amount of work employees do, these machines could make people complete their work faster and better, influencing social dynamics to “help teams perfo

28、in the mid1990s, online shopping via ecommerce was in its infancy (初期).Its hard to believe that many consumers were reluctant to buy online at that time.Nowadays, online shopping, however, has become the most popular way of buying products, especially during the holidays and clearance seasons.More a

29、nd more people enjoy browsing a world of goods online, choosing the goods they want and having them delivered to their door, sometimes within hours.We are buying more online than ever.Our rapidly growing delivery culture is a challenge, says Tim Anderson, head of transport at the Energy Saving Trust

30、.“Its easy to go online and buy things cheaply.They might have been shipped from foreign countries, manufactured from raw materials and they arrive at our homes at little or no cost.”In an ideal world, online shopping could be a better choice than making individual trips to the store.“We dont live i

31、n an ideal world, however, but one in which profit and consumerism are rampant (猖獗的).We dont behave and online retailers (零售商) dont encourage us to behave in a sensible way，” says Julian Allen, researcher at the transport studies department at the University of Westminster.Once, we were prepared to

32、wait, but now we want the sameday delivery.That tends to mean service is being delivered in smaller and smaller quantities.We have vehicles shooting all over the place making single deliveries.We have the concept of “free” delivery, which is a selling point for retailers, but its not really free in

33、the sense of what it costs the retailers and what it costs in environmental terms.The growth in hotfood delivery services, such as Deliveroo and Uber Eats, has been considerable.“Its totally inefficient to deliver a single meal in a car or motorbike，” says Allen.“Bicycles would help in terms of poll

34、ution, but the trend has been to move away from bikes as these firms expand their networks, and its not workable.” Therefore, shop at the local stores, especially if you can use green transport.12What can we know from Paragraph 1?A.Peoples shopping habits have changed a lot.B.Online shopping has imp

35、roved our life quality.C.Online shopping develops faster than people thought.D.Peoples ideas of consumption become more reasonable than before.13Why are Julian Allens words mentioned in Paragraph 3?A.To show it is important to behave ourselves.B.To explain why people stop shopping at local stores.C.

37、sameday delivery is done at the expense of the environment.15Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?A.To advise people to use public transport.B.To encourage people to make green purchase.C.To urge delivery companies to improve their service.D.To ask people to buy environmentallyfriendly thin
